Summary:

London. 2015. The government is set to vote on ending the microchipping of magic users, and Arthur Pendragon has been tasked with kidnapping prominent Magical activist Merlin Emrys to influence the outcome.

Locked away in a house on the North York Moors, tensions rise and confrontation ensues as Arthur is forced to re-evaluate everything he’s been taught about magic, and Merlin finds himself in a struggle for his life. And the fact that they’re falling for each other doesn’t help…


Podfic of Polomonkey's fic.

Notes: I recorded this for Epic Podfic Big Bang in 2018. Thank you to the mods for running the challenge. Thank you to cath for being my beta. Thank you to polomonkey for giving me permission to podfic their work, and to mushroomtale for allowing me to use their art for the covers!
This work was created as a "picture book" that you listen to. More information on that in the notes at the beginning of the recording.

I'm a feminist who loves TV & enjoys movies, adores her friends, occasionally writes fanfic (and rarely finishes them), almost always reads fanfics, nerds about Harry Potter, moons over Bradley James and others (esp. when blond/e), collects picture books and colouring books (but rarely colours the latter one), procrastinates, organises fan convention(s). I'm domestic, a librarian, going on 30, and anglophile. That's all you need to know to begin with XD
